I was on a walking holiday with among others a member of the Tory Party, who told me that some of his fellow members had voted for Corbyn. That was who I was referring to!
This General Election must be unique, in that only one party is electable. Corbyn has tried to change the agenda away from Brexit by weeping crocodile tears over the victims of the wealth gap. But he thinks that is enough. At least the Lib-Dems are giving responsible answers to the question of funding the crumbling NHS. Corbyn is reverting to his true self, a protesting back-bencher, and I think his Croydon speech was typical of him. His supporters are so naive they are dangerous, and the main point of interest in this election is whether or not common sense will return to Labour afterwards. People sneer at MichaelFoot, but not me, Corbyn has set a benchmark for uselessness.
Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse.............................................. I can see their new slogan coming.... "Drain The Swamp".
The evidence is that former Labour voters who voted UKIP are going to vote Tory, especially Up North.
Or continue economic Austerity which isn't working (national debt has more than doubled in the last 7 years) and only helps the rich, whilst the poor stuggle more and more.
Britain is a poorer country without a strong Labour Party. And I don't mean New Labour either. The Tories should be vulnerable, their record is poor in many ways, but because of Corbyn's dreadful leadership none of it will matter. And if you can't recognise the government's failings I can't help you!
I grew up in an era where it was possible to have a lot of respect for a right wing Labour Party that truly represented working people - I am talking about big politicians like Jim Callaghan, Denis Healey, Peter Shore & Roy Mason. This current crop are absolute pygmies in comparison. No roots in their communities & no real beliefs. Corbyn claims that he is not a professional politician - he has been an MP for 34 years & before that he was a councillor. The man has never worked in private industry or created wealth in his life.
